Biography
"Dr. J. Brain Dempson, received his PhD from the Memorial University of Newfoundland. Examining the effects of long term exploitation on the dynamics of anadromous Arctic charr populations. Examining and quantifying the relative importance of stream versus lake habitat to overall production of Atlantic salmon. Examining effects of environmental influences on trends in salmonid populations. Examining stock-recruitment and other relationships to derive biological reference points to establish conservation spawning requirements for Atlantic salmon. Deriving methods to estimate river-specific marine exploitation rates on Atlantic salmon."
